    Coach Fages and the coaching group

    The two would be Roos to Longmire and Roos to Goodwin. In both instances, it was essentially led by Roos, who knew he was leaving, was comfortable with that, and by the end of his tenures he was essentially coaching his understudy, who was in turn coaching the team. Contrast that with...

    Coach Fages and the coaching group

    Just one thing on these "high expectations". We often see players who hit the post or just miss to the left or right and you can see the look on their face: "gee, so close" or "that was unlucky". No, that was not close, you weren't unlucky. You've missed your target by more than 3 metres. Your...

    I think tonight's been pretty good really. Low scoring but the ball's pinging around. New rules having an effect. Will be even better when they finally get rid of prior opportunity.

    Analysis Centre Bounce/Wing Attendance Megathread 2024

    There's no way known we have enough players cycling through centre bounces. Would be interesting to compare the amount of players we have attend 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% and 60% of centre bounces compared to other clubs. I'd suggest that most contending clubs don't have a drop off from their #5 to #6...

    I think it's because the train and bus routes span multiple council areas. Mind you if you're in the Kingscliff area the bus routes span multiple states but I ain't touching that one!

    This is why I'd give him a go in defence. And it sounds like Dom Fay has been converted too!

    Bit of movement at the station for the seeds this week! #1 - Sydney 162% (#1 in attack, #2 in defence) #2 - Western Bulldogs (up 3) 125% (#3 in attack, #9 in defence - up 3). Hello old friend. Despite losing, an impressive performance against Sydney sees them get a boost. #3 - Melbourne 123%...

    Mitch reported similar last week. This is the first I've heard of it being 7 years tho. The AFL website this morning reported only 6 years.
